Nick Saban didn’t waste any time finding Miss Terry after Alabama defeated Texas A&M 26-20 on Saturday in College Station.

As reported, Miss Terry’s been known to attend every game on the schedule but was missing on Sept. 30 when the Tide played Mississippi State in Starkville.

So the Alabama coach made it a point to find his wife and family after the big SEC West win.

Miss Terry has made headlines over the past week. It hasn’t just been because of her absence for the Mississippi State game, but Saban made sure to explain she had an impact on the way he coaches.

When asked what caused him to be more visibly aggravated on the sideline than usual, Saban jokingly placed the blame on his wife.

“Miss Terry told me if they’re not playing good, to get on their butt,” Saban said. “So I just did what I was told.”

On Saturday, Jalen Milroe passed for a career-high 321 yards and Jermaine Burton caught two touchdown passes as No. 11 Alabama beat Texas A&M to take control of the SEC West.

Burton had nine catches for 197 yards for the Crimson Tide (5-1, 3-0 SEC). Milroe, the Texas native, completed 21 of 33 passes and was sacked six times.

The Aggies (4-2, 2-1) got within one score when coach Jimbo Fisher elected to have Randy Bond kick a 20-yard field goal with 2:11 remaining, but Alabama recovered an ensuing onside kick and moved the chains for a first down to run out the clock.

Max Johnson, who took over as the starting quarterback after an injury to Conner Weigman two weeks ago, passed for 239 yards and a touchdown for Texas A&M.
